Planet Fitness Screwed Me

[Keith Wassung]

You know, I have been doing some mental searching for a theme for my blog in the future--I think sort of a Ralph Nader/Consumer Advocate/Crusader against scams and injustices in the fitness and nutrition industry might be a nice idea. I could still write about lifting, etc.

There are no lawyers or legalease in small claims court. Explain to him that if you don't get your refund, either he, or one of his employees will end up having to go to court, and they will be paying back your money plus your court expenses.

Even if he gives you a hard time and thinks you're bluffing, filing in small claims court is really easy and you will have a slam dunk case. It would be a good learning experience.

There you have it. And you have the summer off, so you have time to go.

If you could get a hold of some lice, then "find" it in the mens locker room and get someone else to "find" it, run out of the locker room screaming "lice" at the top of your lungs, etc. etc

Get an old duffel bag from Goodwill, find a dead animal on the road and put it in the bag, place bag in available locker at club and padlock shut. wipe fingerprints from lock and bag of course. This also works great for airlines who lose your luggage, just place the bag on the luggage carousel and walk away

There are some devious ideas in this thread.

I don't really blame anyone though, it's infuriating when some company tries to screw you over, and then get away with it using underhanded bullshit.

Go to a thrift store and buy 10-12 hard back volumes of novels, try for the classics if possible, should cost you no more than fifty cents each.

In the front title page, take a red sharpie and in bold print write

PERSONAL PROPERTY OF (FULL NAME OF PF MANAGER)

THIS IS A VERY VALUABLE BOOK, IF FOUND PLEASE CALL (Ph # of PF)

50.00 CASH REWARD

Sign name of PF Manger.

leave these books lying around in public places, park benches, laundrymats, etc

Freeze little balls of hamburger solid, and bring them, and sugar cubes, in your gym bag. Move one of the tiles in the bathroom, and toss them up and into the ceiling. The 'burg'll stink and the sugar'll draw ants.

I'm going to use some these ideas just for shits and giggles.
